Can the AT command be used to schedule a task to run at system startup? I
see that it can be specified in the GUI scheduler, but am wondering if the
AT command could be used as well, to specify "system startup".

Thanks.

Use Schtasks instead.

I didn't provide enough details. This is a W2000 server, and schtasks is
not available on it.

Thanks for the reply.

You could:

- Use the local Group Policy Object to specify a startup script that
does what you want

- Use a domain GPO as above.

- Put a script on the local filesystem and set it to run via a
reference to it in the registry, at
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
